Engine Coolant
Engine Coolant
What level does everyone maintain their engine coolant at? Between the minimum and maximum level? Or what? Mine is currently at the minimum line or a little above it...just looking for some suggestions. Thanks.

And my mechanic and I both prefer filling the overflow tank right to the max line- it's easier to see if a leak or unusual consumption should develop.
Historically, coolant is added maybe once a year on my cars, and usually no more than a couple of cups worth. If the coolant level starts dropping visibly between fuel stops, something needs to be corrected.

u can buy the coolant at any honda/acura dealership. strangely enough it's cheaper at the acura dealership cus i think the honda dealer across the street from me is a rip off joint.
keep in mind when u fill the overflow tank that depending on how hot or cold your car is the levels will be different. if u just turned the car off the coolant will show up at the highest level, so if you're filling the car after it's settled and is dead cold i wouldn't fill it up to the top. i checked how high it was after my car was hot and then just added a little bit from there.
